haha wow those are expensive
newton is force, measured as kilos multiplied by the velocity measured as meters per second squared.
so lets do some calculations on vague ideas... lets say the ninja and you and a passenger weigh 1000lbs (450kg), and lets say you hit 6 inch bump (roughly the max suspension travel) going 100mph (44meters per second squared, about 2k)
450kg * 2000 = 900,000 newtons.
thats leaving a lot of things out, but thats probably about the most force those bones will ever take
lets get a more realistic number, eh?
600lbs (272kg), at 30mps (65mph)
272kg * (30*30) = 244,800 newtons. much more reasonable.
